Maybe with 3" box and 8 twist...

But neither happened...

Add top grade ammo at reasonable price, etc. etc.

As posted earlier, the CM success was the "whole package"...

I have one of the MRC campfire 260's with a 22" fluted 8 twist that I think SAS had them run. Works well once I tweaked the mag box a bit to get it to feed slick. The action is a bit heavy but it shoots well eith.140 vlds loaded out to around 2.95". Sometimes I think of selling it because I'm still more of a creedmoor fan but it's hard to let a 1/2 moa rifle go.

6x MQ on EGW inclination. 10 Mils on the windshield,do nice thangs with 162's crowding 2600fpsfrom it's 20" spout(BLR's wear dismal primary and secondary extraction).

It slaps THE schit outta 1000yd+ steel and is a Mind Fhuqk in general.
